Cocktail of choice when listening to fav music?

either vodka on the rocks, guinness, or newcastle.

Lugnut...I'm with you! I think that ANY kind of alcohol dulls the senses. Of course, my previous years of excessive boozing has biased my opionion as well! More "Mexican Lettuce", por favor!

This is easy, German Beer, French Wine or Scotch Whiskey. Preferably shared with friends who care about good music.

My favorites are Bitburger and Becks Beer, 1986 Château Pichon Comtesse de Lalande Pauillac, or 15 year old Arberlour Scotch.

My favorite is Bailey's Irish Cream with crushed ice, but it's hard to break my ice chewing habit which distracts my ears (and mind) from the music. Any advice, or should I start a new thread?!?!?

Way to go, Albert! That 86 Comtesse is a 100 point bottle! The last Beck's I had was an Oktoberfest Special. I think there is some still left in the stores. I haven't had a Bitburger in years. If I remember correctly the last Bitburger I had was a Weissbier, with the yeast still floating around in it. Can only drink one of them. I need to come down there and get introduced to some of that great Scotch Whisky. I've only had Glenlivet and Glenmorangie.
